KUMPULAN KULIAH: D
1. Problem Statements
The common problem faced by large, medium and small companies is how to
combine factors of production or resources that are owned jointly so as to obtain
maximum profits at a minimum cost. Problems related to the process of maximizing
profits on star Bakery home industry is the process of finding optimal solutions in
production. There is a linear relationship of the level of profit, factors of production
and products produced by the company, to solve the optimization problem is used
linear programming analysis tool (linear program) using the simplex method [5].
2. Objectives
The purpose of this research is to optimize the benefits of the Bintang Bakery
home industry.
To find an optimization model of profit on the Bakery star home industry.
3. Literature review
This research has been carried out by several people, namely Yulianti Siadari,
with the title of the research is Optimization of the Advantages in the Production of
Crepe Industry in Bandar Lampung PU Gang (Case Study at the Palace of Chips Mery
Mother), and An-Saryoko with the title of research Me-tode Simplex in Optimizing
Production Results. The research that will be conducted this time has three variables
by using the simplex method. In this study, the production factors used are raw
materials, production machines, and labor hours using Lindo tools.
4. Methodology
The researchers used interview and observation to obtain data from the production
process. They used simplex method in linear programming to analyse data.
1. Linear Programming
Standard linear programming problems. Maximum or minimum:
2. Simplex Method
The simplex method is a solution to the problem of linear programming by finding a
feasible solution, and using an iterative procedure, developing solutions to an optimal
solution. (The simplex method starts with a feasible point and tests whether the value
of the objective function is optimal. If this is not the case, then this method continues
at a better point. It is said to be better because, at a new point, the value of the
objective function is usually close to optimal. If this new point does not provide
optimal value, we repeat the procedure. In the end, the simplex method will produce
an optimal value if it exists .
This research was conducted at the star Bakery home industry, Sukarame, Bandar
Lampung. This business produces three types of products, namely flavored bread,
mattress bread, and fresh bread. This flavored bread has six flavors, namely chocolate
flavor, chocolate cheese flavor, pineapple flavor, blueberry flavor, cheese milk flavor,
and strawberry flavor. The price in each package of bread is Rp.
Completion of the simplex method:
Solving the above problems and to find an optimization model of profit on the Bakery
star home industry, use the following steps:
1. Determine the decision variables in solving linear program problems, namely the
types of bread produced in the Bakery star home industry:
𝑥1 = 𝐵𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑔 𝐵𝑎𝑘𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑓𝑙𝑎𝑣𝑜𝑟 (3640 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠)
𝑥2 = 𝐵𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑔 𝐵𝑎𝑘𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠 (1300 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠)
𝑥3 = 𝐵𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑔 𝐵𝑎𝑘𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑏𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛 (520 𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠)
2. Determine the constraints in the problem:
4. Change the inequality (≤) to be (=)by adding slack variables and artificial variables
for inequality(≥)to the left side of the obstacle.
The results of the production optimization model processing show that the production
carried out by the Bakery star home industry in factual conditions are not optimal. This
can be seen from the condition of the total production that is different from the optimal
conditions.
Based on table 3 the results of processing the production optimization model on the Bakery star
home industry in factual conditions have not shown optimal results. This is shown by the results
produced in factual conditions different from the results obtained in optimal conditions. In
factual conditions, there were 3640 flavored Bakery stars, 1300 star Bakery mattresses, and 520
tasteless Bakery stars. 3740 flavored Bakery stars, 1300 Bakery stars, and 520 Bakery stars
were obtained for optimal conditions.
Profit optimization calculations using the simplex method, get optimal results if the home
industry produces 3740 packs of flavored Bakery stars, 1300 star Bakery mattresses and 520
packaged Bakery stars, Rp. 19,750,000 obtained. If the Bakery star home industry produces
each type of bread according to optimal results, the benefits that will be obtained will get
optimal results. The optimal results obtained are Rp. 19,750,000 while the optimal results
obtained from factual conditions are Rp. 19,500,000. The benefits obtained from factual
conditions to optimal conditions are increased by Rp. 250,000
